Neither this Note nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned or otherwise transferred by any party, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other party; provided that the Noteholder will be free to sell or transfer all or any portion of this Note to (i) another Noteholder, (ii) any affiliate or related fund or managed account of a Noteholder, and (iii) any other investor, subject in the case solely of transfers pursuant to clause (iii) (if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) to the prior consent of the Borrower, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and in the event the Borrower has not responded to any such proposed assignment within fifteen (15) Business Days, the consent of the Borrower shall be deemed given thereto. If the Noteholder sells, assigns or otherwise transfers any of its rights to receive payments pursuant to this Note (including of the outstanding principal amount) to another person or entity (a “Transferee”), then the Borrower shall implement and maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Transferees, the portion of this Note assigned or transferred and the amounts owing to the Noteholder and any Transferee (the “Register”).

The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Noteholder and any Transferee, at any reasonable time from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. These requirements are intended to ensure that the obligations with respect to this Note are at all times in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

10.8 Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, no term of this Note may be waived, modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto. Any waiver of the terms hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given.

10.9 Headings. The headings of the various Sections and subsections herein are for reference only and shall not define, modify, expand or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

10.10 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising on the part of the Noteholder, of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.11 Severability. If any term or provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Note or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.12 Nature of Obligations of the Borrower. The Borrower waives any right to require the Noteholder to (i) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower or any other party or (ii) pursue any other remedy in the Noteholder’s power whatsoever. The Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of suretyship or any impairment of security held from the Borrower or any other party or on or arising out of any defense of any party other than payment in full in cash of the obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability of any party, or the unenforceability of the obligations hereunder or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any party, in each case other than as a result of the payment in full in cash of the obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

10.13 Parity with Other Investor Notes. The Borrower’s repayment obligation to the Noteholder under this Note shall be on parity with the Borrower’s obligation to repay all Investor Notes. In the event that the Borrower is obligated to repay the Investor Notes and does not have sufficient funds to repay all the Investor Notes in full, payment shall be made to the Noteholders of the Investor Notes on a pro rata basis. The preceding sentence shall not, however, relieve the Borrower of its obligations to the Noteholder hereunder.

10.14 Costs and Expenses; Indemnity. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation, any attorneys’ fees and disbursements that may be incurred by the Noteholder in connection with the preparation, negotiation, enforcement or collection of this Note, and any costs of collection. The Borrower shall indemnify the Noteholder against, and hold the Noteholder harmless from, any and all losses, disputes, claims, investigations, litigation, proceedings, damages, and liabilities of any kind regardless of whether the Noteholder is a party thereto (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of legal counsel to the Noteholder), incurred by or asserted against the Noteholder arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of any act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to this Note, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether the Noteholder is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to the Noteholder, be available to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, or liability results from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of this Note by the Noteholder.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This agreement (this “Agreement”) is being entered into by and among Novalis LifeSciences Investments II, L.P. (“Novalis”) and Northpond Ventures III, LP (“NPV”, together with Novalis, the “Investors”) and Telesis Bio Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, and each of Novalis, NPV and the Company, a “Party”, and together, the “Parties”). Reference is made to the Promissory Note, dated as of July 16, 2024, between the Company and Novalis and the Promissory Note, dated as of July 16, 2024, between the Company and NPV (collectively, the “Promissory Notes”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.1(d) of the Promissory Notes, the Company agreed to enter into an agreement with the Investors pursuant to which the Investors shall be granted the right to nominate five (5) directors (each, an “Investor Nominee”) for election to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company does hereby agree as follows:

1. Size of the Board. The Company covenants and agrees that, immediately following the execution of this Agreement, it will increase the size of the Board to thirteen (13) directors (each such newly created directorship, an “Investor Nominee Seat”).

2. Election of Investor Nominees. The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all steps necessary to, concurrently with the Closing (as such term is defined in the Promissory Notes), appoint each of Sarah Hlavinka, Todd Krueger, Michael Hodges, Jim Weissman, and Steve Golub to the Board as an Investor Nominee, provided, that such Investor Nominee (i) consents to serving as a member of the Board and (ii) completes a director and officer questionnaire on the Company’s standard form at least two (2) business days prior to appointment to the Board. For the avoidance of doubt, immediately following the Closing, the Board shall be composed of the following members: Eric Esser, Greg Herrema, Andrea L. Jackson, Jami Nachtsheim, Todd R. Nelson, Christine A. Tsingos, Annette Tumolo, Franklin R. Witney, Sarah Hlavinka, Todd Krueger, Michael Hodges, Jim Weissman, and Steve Golub.

3. Replacement Designees. The Company covenants and agrees that, in the event that any Investor Nominee is not re-elected or otherwise ceases to serve as a director, including in the event of a vacancy in any Investor Nominee Seat following the Closing (a “Departing Director”), at any time that the Investors, together with their respective affiliates, collectively hold at least 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) (calculated after giving effect to the full conversion of any shares of the Company’s Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, then held by Novalis or NPV, or any of their respective affiliates, and full exercise of any then in-the-money warrants to purchase Common Stock then held by Novalis or NPV, or any of their respective affiliates, in each case, without giving effect to any limitations on conversion and/or exercise contained therein) (the “Continued Ownership Requirement”), the Company shall take all necessary action to appoint a replacement director designated jointly by the Investors in writing for each such Departing Director (such individual, a “Investor Replacement Nominee”), which appointment by the Company shall be effected as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than fifteen (15) business days from the Company’s receipt of such written notice by the Investors, and shall include the Investor Replacement Nominee in the Company’s proxy statement for each annual stockholder meeting at which such Investor Replacement Nominee is up for election and shall recommend that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the Investor Replacement Nominee, provided, that such Investor Replacement Nominee (i) consents to serving as a member of the Board and (ii) completes a director and officer questionnaire on the Company’s standard form.

4. Indemnification, Insurance and Compensation. Concurrently with the appointment of an Investor Nominee or Investor Replacement Nominee, the Company and each such Investor Nominee or Investor Replacement Nominee shall offer to enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. In addition, each Investor Nominee and Investor Replacement Nominee shall be entitled to receive from the Company and its subsidiaries, if applicable, the same insurance coverage in connection with his or her service as a member of the Board or any committee thereof as is provided for each of the other members of the Board or committee, as applicable. Such insurance coverage shall be provided through customary director and officer indemnity insurance on commercially reasonable terms. The Company further agrees that it will compensate each Investor Nominee and Investor Replacement Nominee consistent with the terms of the Company’s non-employee director compensation policy as in effect from time to time and will reimburse each such Investor Nominee and Investor Replacement Nominee for reasonable costs and expenses in attending Board meetings in accordance with the Company’s policies.

5. Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Company covenants and agrees that for so long as the Investors satisfy the Continued Ownership Requirement, a majority of the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board shall consist of Investor Nominees or Investor Replacement Nominees.

6. Event of Default. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the failure of the Company to observe or perform any covenant, obligation, or agreement contained in this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Promissory Notes) under each of the Promissory Notes.

7. Miscellaneous.

7.1 Conflicts. Subject to and to the maximum extent permitted by law, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall hereafter enter into any agreement that is materially inconsistent with the rights granted to the Investors by this Agreement.

7.4 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended and the observance of any provision may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the mutual written consent of the Parties.

7.5 No Effect Upon Lending Relationship. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect, limit or impair the rights and remedies of the Investors (or any of their affiliates) in their respective capacities as a lender to the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to any debt agreement under which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has borrowed money from such lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Investor, in exercising its rights as a lender, will have no duty to consider (i) its status or the status of any of its affiliates as a direct or indirect equity holder of the Company, (ii) the equity of the Company or (iii) any duty it may have to any stockholder or any other direct or indirect stockholder of the Company, except as may be required under the applicable loan documents or by law applicable to creditors generally.

7.8 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof; provided that if any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any Party or to any circumstance, is adjudged by a governmental authority, arbitrator, or mediator not to be enforceable in accordance with its terms, the Parties agree that the governmental authority, arbitrator, or mediator making such determination will have the power to modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives such that it is enforceable, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its reduced form, such provision will then be enforceable and will be enforced.

Hampton, NH 03842

Northpond Ventures, LP

7500 Old Georgetown Rd, Suite 850

Bethesda, MD 20814

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated June 2, 2023 (the “Agreement”), among Telesis Bio Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the several investors signatory thereto (each, an “Investor,” and collectively, the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Company and the Investors agreed to, among other things, certain registration rights covering the resale of Registrable Securities and procedures related thereto. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

In accordance with Section 6(d) of the Agreement, the Company and the Principal Investors (as defined below) representing the Majority in Interest of Holders hereby agree as follows:

1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, as of the date hereof, Novalis Life Sciences Investments II, L.P. and Northpond Ventures, LP, each as an Investor party to the Agreement (the “Principal Investors”), on behalf of all Investors, hereby defer payment (the “Deferral”) of any and all amounts owed to the Investors under Section 2(d) of the Agreement (the “Liquidated Damages”). The Company and the Principal Investors hereby agree that the Liquidated Damages shall accrue upon the occurrence of an Event and in accordance with Section 2(d) of the Agreement, however, such Liquidated Damages shall not be owed to the Investors during the period of the Deferral (the “Deferral Period”). No interest shall accrue, including any interest pursuant to Section 2(d) of the Agreement, on the Liquidated Damages during the Deferral Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and each Principal Investor hereby agree that in accordance with Section 2(d) of the Agreement, the maximum aggregate Liquidated Damages and accrued interest on such Liquidated Damages payable to an Investor under the Agreement shall not exceed 6% of the aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Investor pursuant to the Agreement (the “Liquidated Damages Cap”).

2. The Deferral Period shall terminate upon the earlier of: (i) the date that is 60 days following the end of the Company’s first fiscal quarter in which it has become cash flow positive, as evidenced by the Company’s quarterly financial statements with respect to such fiscal quarter (and as determined in good faith by the Principal Investors based on such financial statements), which financial statements shall be made reasonably available to the Principal Investors (which may include filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission) as soon as practicable and in any event within 45 days of the end of the applicable fiscal quarter; (ii) the date on which the Company consummates a Fundamental Transaction (as defined below); or (iii) the date on which the Company consummates a debt or equity financing in which the gross proceeds to the Company is greater than or equal to $5 million, with such amount resulting from a single transaction or a series of related transactions occurring after the date hereof.

3. Upon termination of the Deferral Period, any Liquidated Damages accrued during the Deferral Period shall become immediately due and payable to the Investors. In addition, upon termination of the Deferral Period, Liquidated Damages shall continue to accrue and interest on the Liquidated Damages shall resume, each in accordance with Section 2(d) of the Agreement.

4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of receiving cash for any Liquidated Damages in accordance with Section 2(d) of the Agreement, each Principal Investor reserves the right to add any or all of the Liquidated Damages owed to such Principal Investor to the principal amount of any debt outstanding and owed by the Company to such Principal Investor (the “Debt Option”). Each Principal Investor may, in its sole discretion, elect the Debt Option upon written notice to the Company prior to the Company’s payment of any Liquidated Damages in cash, with such notice to state the debt to which such Liquidated Damages shall be added and the amount of Liquidated Damages to be added to the principal amount of such debt. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and each Principal Investor hereby agree that in the event that a Principal Investor elects the Debt Option, the amount owed to such Principal Investor related to such Liquidated Damages and any interest accruing on such Liquidated Damages pursuant to such debt instrument shall not exceed the Liquidated Damages Cap.

As used herein, “Fundamental Transaction” shall mean (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, in which the Company is not the surviving entity and in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, at least 65% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, (ii) the Company (or any subsidiary), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets, other than to a wholly owned subsidiary, in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) is completed pursuant to which holders of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 35% or more of the outstanding Common Stock or 35% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another person or group of persons whereby such other person or group acquires 35% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or 35% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company.

This Waiver Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Waiver Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Section 6(i) of the Agreement.

This Waiver Agreement may be signed in counterparts (which may include counterparts delivered by any standard form of telecommunication), each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Waiver Agreement, nor any consent or approval to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.
